Flunked out of FAANG (zing!) and realized that my 6 years of experience have been spent with my head firmly lodged within my ass. Below is my plan to unfuck myself. Feedback appreciated.

Learning Kubernetes (K8s) for me was about getting pissed off enough at Bezos for all the money he was making off of me lol. I wanted to have my own little infrastructure that I control but without having to babysit it. I tried Docker Swarm, which was nice but wasn’t translating into professional-grade cluster experience. I found a project called Open FAAS that let me deploy my own Lambda/serverless. It ran on K8s. So, I followed a few tutorials on K3s (a lightweight version of K8s for the pi) and deployed it with K3sup. The OpenFAAS project, K8s, and Docker are written in Golang, so I learned some of that with A Tour Of Go. After branching out into the K8s world for a bit, I decided to get my Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD). I took this Udemy course and passed the test on the first go. You’ll learn just about everything you’ll need to know about K8s from that experience.
